    The advantages are the admiration of your peers for possessing such a fine timepiece and a certain pride of ownership that will be almost inevitable.

    The disadvantages include the envy and outright jealousy of your friends and relations.

    We'll need to wait for the experts to notice this and evaluate the dial..... but it looks fine to me. (but I do really need to get glasses!) The rotor has rubbed the inside of the case back so there could be an issue there. Nice clean looking movement, likely a 564, one of the very best. Nice clean case, if the price isn't too high and the winding mechanism in good nick (that rotor) it could be worth a go. Check to be sure the quick set for the date is working well as this can be a bit of a bitch to fix. What's the asking price?

    edit: Odd that the movement shown looks so very clean but the case isn't clean around the back.... like the back hasn't been off. (So is that the actual movement from this piece?)

    Watch looks good but its value is that how much someone is willing to pay. If You like it You should buy it.

    Saprix, it is custom here to jump on new members for minor transgressions and see if they can take it with smile. No harm is meant and it is all part of the getting to know you process. Giving each other sarcastic barbs is common and sometimes the more received can be taken as a token of endearment
    It is kind of like the wild west at times, but my assessment is you probably have what it takes to fit in. :thumbsup:

    Of course we do have more then our share of :coffee: old (and young) men :D

    $650.... a good price if the watch is running well and you like the piece. Unless you're getting from a watchmaker plan on getting it serviced.

    Oh.... and welcome to the zoo....
